Behind the scenes

LET’S CONNECT ON INSTAGRAM

Just hit publish on a blog post about progressive Just hit publish on a blog post about progressive overload and it got me thinking about how we monitor this and the connection to our @garminuk training status 😅 (IYKYK)

Who wouldn’t wanna see “productive” like, every. single. day..?? But it doesn’t work like that, and it’s not supposed to work like that 😬

When you see productive, it means you’re doing summit right; keep doing that lol and if you’ve been using the principle of progressive overload, it’ll mean it’s working properly.

Gradual increase. Enough recovery. Training that fits your life. 

This is exactly what we work on in my online strength classes — consistent progression, sensible rest, and training that works with real life, not against it.

“Not fit enough” is the biggest lie people tell th “Not fit enough” is the biggest lie people tell themselves about indoor cycling.

You don’t need to keep up, prove anything, or go all-out. You ride your ride.

Everyone starts somewhere — that’s literally the point.
If this thought has ever crossed your mind, consider this your gentle nudge 🚲

Follow along if you want to see what indoor cycling actually looks and feels like.

Cold? Fine. Wind? Manageable. Rain? Absolutely not Cold? Fine. Wind? Manageable. Rain? Absolutely not. I’m a dry-roads-only cyclist and I will happily wait it out until the group chat says “no rain forecast”. 

Kit’s ready for that rare, glorious dry day — including La Roche-Posay Anthelios UVMune 400 Invisible Fluid SPF50+ [gifted] because if I am rolling out, sunscreen is non-negotiable. It’s been featured in my blog post Best Sunscreen For Cycling – Recommended By Cyclists since I hit publish in 2020. 

What’s your personal “I’m not riding if…” rule? 👀 you’re among friends here 😝

Whilst the cold weather feels like it has / will b Whilst the cold weather feels like it has / will be here for an eternity, it’s my fav time to dream up adventures for when Spring arrives 🌱

So if you asked me what’s on my wish list for this year, these are the places I wanna go and would suggest ⏩️

The one that’s confirmed is Mojácar 🇪🇸 in April where I’ll be hosting a women’s cycling retreat with @la.reine.strictly.female - come ride with us?! Options available for 3, 4 or 7 nights 🚴🏽‍♀️☀️

Save this for later and steal a few ideas 👀

Heard this is some sort of trend but not sure what Heard this is some sort of trend but not sure what the message is… 👀 so I’m sharing my own as a reminder that:

🤷🏾‍♀️ acne doesn’t always go away after a certain age 

🤷🏾‍♀️ you don’t have to cover your imperfections (I swear everybody is too busy thinking about their own to notice yours)

🤷🏾‍♀️ you should take your skincare (from the inside out) seriously before you reach my age 😅

⚠️ wear sunscreen every 👏🏾single 👏🏾day 👏🏾 friends 

that 👏🏾 is 👏🏾all
